“My mom got pregnant with me at the university of Texas when she was 19 years old,” she said in a recent video interview. “She knew that I already existed and I was a living human being, and she’s going to forever be my hero because of that.”

La Rose continued, “All that she sacrificed for me so that I could live — that to me is true feminist strength.”
